On The Water Fly Fishing School

Due to customer interest we are offering what we call an On the Water Fly Fishing School.  The one on one, one on two focus allows us to provide the same instruction we offer in our regular classes and do it on the river while under actual fishing conditions.  I will be at your side teaching you to read water (find fish!), cast, rig, and present your flies properly, how to hook, land, and release fish too.  We will learn by DOING...just like the Nike saying goes "Just do it."  A great way to get someone into the sport.  This instruction is by appointment just like a guided trip, you can book a day by calling 336.644-7775, or by email.  Lasts approx 4-5 hrs.  $150 for one angler, $225 for two anglers.
